Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
There is no one federal law that specifically addresses employment applications, although there are record retention guidelines under a variety of federal laws (see the topic “Recordkeeping”) and non-discrimination provisions for hiring in general (see the topic “Discrimination”).
Georgia law has a provision requiring all written application forms which request identifying ethnic information from a list of classifications to include “multiracial” for one of the classifications. The designation of “other” as a classification is not allowed.
